Dita Von Teese Offers a Piece of Herself: Photos

You have a day left to bid on a piece of Dita Von Teese, the burlesque superstar who went by Heather Renée Sweet when she knocked around University High School in Irvine. It's not a smooth, milky white body part up for auction on eBay but the stunning beauty's French blue, 1939 Packard 120 sedan.

Von Teese, who stores the Packard in Costa Mesa, had the vintage ride restored 10 years ago and it is said to run "absolutely perfectly."
